AeroLEDs now offers a smaller version of its popular AeroSUN LED anti-collision/landing/taxi light system introduced last year at Oshkosh AirVenture. Both the SUNLite and AeroSUN systems are 100% solid-state and are designed for Experimental and Light Sport Aircraft powered by the Rotax 900 series engine. SUNLites offer a smaller footprint and use the new generation of high-intensity LEDs, which consume 20%-50% of the current of traditional filament or high intensity discharge (HID) lighting while producing more light per watt.
The AeroSUNLite units can be installed as a single unit on the nosegear or cowling, or they can be installed in pairs within the wingtips. The wingtip configuration allows for phased (wig-wag) flashing of the lights, offering the most effective anti-collision protection without diminishing the life of the lights. All of the products are rated at 50,000 hours of operation.
The AeroSUNLite lights are $224.95 per single light or $399.95 per pair.
